SQL Query for Selecting Multiple Records

Question

I have 9 fields and I need to see all the data from these fields which have a particular set of IDs. Could any one tell me the SQL query for it?

Ex: Database contains 100 records. I need to select a list of 20 IDs from the field BusID and it's corresponding rows.

SELECT * 
FROM `Buses` 
WHERE `BusID` I am stuck after this.. how do I put in the list of 20 BusIds here?

Answer 1

If you know the list of ids try this query:

SELECT * FROM `Buses` WHERE BusId IN (`list of busIds`)

or if you pull them from another table list of busIds could be another subquery:

SELECT * FROM `Buses` WHERE BusId IN (SELECT SomeId from OtherTable WHERE something = somethingElse)

If you need to compare to another table you need a join:

SELECT * FROM `Buses` JOIN OtheTable on Buses.BusesId = OtehrTable.BusesId

Answer 2

You can try this
SELECT * FROM Buses WHERE BusID in (1,2,3,4,...)

Answer 3

You're looking for the IN() clause:

SELECT * FROM `Buses` WHERE `BusID` IN (1,2,3,5,7,9,11,44,88,etc...);
